According to Unilad, “Alvim, a black belt in muay thai and blue belt in jiu-jitsu, went into the locker to pay a visit to his coach, Felipe Siva, as well as his friends who were also competing the same night.

After hearing about the main event situation from the group, he volunteered himself to replace Kall but discovered a solution had already been found.”

As with most good stories, there’s a plot twist, and 40 minutes before the fight was schedule to start, Alvim received the offer of a life time.
